Review of Hoodlum (1997) by Stephen Hunter for Washington Post — 03 Nov 2000
You can feel Hoodlum hungering to be bigger than it possibly can be. It wants to be "The Godfather" of African Americans, a vast tale of crime and heroism and nerve and ambition. But it tries too hard and ends up feeling spotty rather than deep.
